Blind Pig Confessions's Podcast

Back at one of our favorite spots, the Pigs cut loose with Brian Graham at Four Day Ray.

This is one of those off the wall episodes where the conversation goes off the track pretty much when we leave the station. But never a dull moment when fueled with FDR brews. What's coming up at Four Day?

Jump on board and take the trip to find out.

Cheers!

Jeremy Nicely of Evil Czech and Holly Cole of New Holland Brewing Company have visited us so often in Indy we kind of feel like family. So it was a must to finally travel to Mishawaka, Indiana and visit with Jeremy in his home at Evil Czech Brewery and Public House. We will be visiting New Holland this summer. Joining us on co-hosting duties this week is John Bahler of The Stampede String Band. We get down and dirty early in this one as we toast the start of the show with a lovely glass of whiskey from Journeyman Distillery which is always available at Evil Czech. Lots covered this week from hearing about Jeremy and Holly's visit to Colorado for the World Cup of Beer 2016, upcoming events and brews, bad jokes, John's first job shoveling shit, cannibal sandwiches, and Dougy Fresh realizes he was subjected to child exploitation and illegal child labor as a young boy. Many Evil brews were harmed in the making of this episode including: Luscious Mounds, a coconut, oatmeal milk stout and a delicious Farmhouse Black IPA. And be on the hunt for another killer beer from the Dragon's Milk family, the Coconut Rum Dragon's Milk and Hopronix, the Double IPA made with those beautiful mosaic hops. We do tend to talk highly of all the Evil Czech brews almost weekly on the show, but you must get to the brewery to not just enjoy the on tap line up, but some really stellar food as well. So sit back and enjoy this week's ride and be on the lookout for the upcoming show with the rest of the boys from The Stampede String Band as we highlight their upcoming show at the newly renovated HiFi in Fountain Square. Na zdravie! Shout Outs this week include: Vegetable Buddies; Tappers Arcade Bar, Twincade; Jeremy Brown; Fiddlers Hearth; Wild Rose Moon; Twisted Crew Brewing Company; Indiana Whiskey Company; Moxxie; Tracksuit Lyfestile; Otis Gibbs; and People's Brew http://evilczechbrewery.com/ http://www.journeymandistillery.com/ http://newhollandbrew.com/corp/tours http://www.thestampedestringband.com/

It's back! The historic live music venue of the mid-seventies, Vegetable Buddies, which featured legendary acts such as Canned Heat and Muddy Waters has been brought back to downtown South Bend, IN. New owner, Jeff Harrison, wanted to pay homage to those great acts that once graced VB's stage and bring in some of the best blues and rock bands of today. The pigs had the pleasure of sitting down with Jeff, as well as VB's mixologist, Steve Alger, and bar manager, Maggie Czech to hear more about this classic venue's history and all the new things in store for the future.

Co-hosting on tonight's episode is our brother from another, Mr. Warren Kluck of The Jason Lee and Kluck Show on 103.9 The Bear, as well as, Here's your Freakin' Podcast. VB's didn't just bring back great live music, but they are providing some tasty, unique, Cajun inspired cuisine from chef Jeffrey Nawrot and prohibition cocktails thanks to Maggie and Steve, along with some of the finest whiskey and craft beer around. Things get nostalgic on this episode as we got a little loopy and discussed some of our most memorable concerts, Warren's nightmare in the octagon, and how MC Hammer made one of Warren's greatest Xmas memories while parachute pants made one of Dougy Fresh's worst birthdays ever.

While talking about some of the many upcoming acts coming to VB's in 2017, we spoke about the possibility of Savoy Brown taking the stage, and before this show was released, it became a reality. The legendary Kim Simmons and Savoy Brown will be here on February 28th. Be sure to get tickets now before they are gone. (http://www.etix.com/ticket/v/11772/vegetable-buddies)

BPC – Episode 84 – Red Remains With all the bickering and name calling you'd never guess just how tight-knit this band really is. But there is no shortage of respect for one another and each member brings their unique talents to make Red Remains a driving force.

Melodie Reffey, Mike Schroll, Shawn Walters, and Matt Burch recently joined the Pigs at Alley's Alehouse for some drinks and laughs as we got an in-depth look at one of Indy's freshest bands.

Tune into hear how Matt plays bass with his leg, Mel's hidden talent, what they're listening to when not creating their own music, and a discussion about Nickleback. . . yes, you read that correctly. . . freaking Nickleback.

When Mel isn't laying down vocals for Red Remains, she also manages this beautiful craft bar, right here at Alley's Alehouse located inside Pinheads Bowling Alley in Fishers, IN.

It a one shop stop for all your pleasures from outdoor volleyball courts, bowing, newly renovated arcade with an adult swing(NO, not that kind of a swing!), live music, open mic night hosted by Nick Wengler, craft beer, and upscale affordable dining. Mel has some help from Ben Hildebrand who together are bringing in some of the finest craft beers such as the brew highlighted in tonight's epidose: Scarlet Lane Chocolate Vanilla Dorian Stout. Crank up the volume, grab your favorite craft beer, and check out tonight's show and find out how you can support local music. You can start by joining us on January 21st, right here at Alley's Alehouse for the premier of Red Remains along with Seldom Told. Two great female fronted rock bands and no cover charge, just rock and brews. See you there. Cheers! Shout outs in this episode include: Among the Compromised; Niko's Open Stage, Crystal J Soto, Beer School at Alleys, and Fallout Productions

Our first encounter with those tasty brews from Grand Junction Brewery was at the 2016 Noblesville Brewfest, and boy were we pleased. Owner, Jon Knight, knew he didn't want to mess with fancy, dancy, new fangled brews. He wanted to get back to the basics and make good clean beers inspired by his rich European heritage the way they did in the past. So he joined forced with Head Brewer, Shawn Kessel, and went to work and have quickly made the young Grand Junction Brewing Co. one of the most sought after and successful breweries in the state. We had the pleasure of being invited to a special VIP night to sit with Jon, Sean, and assistant brewer, Mike Hofferman, have a few brews and learn more about this wondrous brewing company nestled in downtown Wesfield.

As usual, humor quickly ensues as we devour some fantastic GJ brews, the Orange Bird on a Boat Double IPA, Radio Moscow Imperial Stout, and the perfect Imperfect Backside Stout. Tune in for the fun and learn more about Jon and Sean's beginnings into the beer scene and how you can become a member to a special VIP Grand Junction club which has some marvelous benefits. Not only are they making solid brews, they are giving back to the community who is showing so much support for them. You could feel and love and cheer in the room coming from the packed house of local VIP members. We bellied up to the bar after the show and had a chance to meet some of the local patrons and hear some of their favorite Grand Junctions stories. It was a difficult place to leave at the end of the night. We weren't able to thank them or their patrons enough for such a fun night and we can't wait to get back there again.

Lots of shout outs this week including: Jonathon Mullins and Broad Ripple Brewbub, Chris Knott and Flix Brewhouse, Andrew Castner of Mashcraft Brewing, Anita Johnson and Great Fermentations, The Ram, Chris Bly and Central State Brewing, Dan and Jerry of The Bier Brewery, Brian Graham and Four Day Ray, and of course, Mr. Dan Gohr of Redemption Alewerks And a big thanks to Mr. Robert Rolfe Feddersen for letting us use his music to end the show. The big man with the bigger heart, who, like the Pigs, loves this special Indiana craft beer scene. Check out his page (http://www.robertrolfefeddersen.com/) and find out where you can see him live.
